Katie Stelmanis' Toronto-based band Austra have announced the follow-up to 2011's Feel It Break. The record, titled Olympia, is out June 18 in the U.S. and June 17 elsewhere via Domino (as well as June 18 in Canada via Paper Bag). Check out the album cut "Home" above.

The single is over 15 minutes long, and features renowned indie filmmaker Jim Jarmusch, Austra, and Annie-Claude Deschênes of Duchess Says. Fucked Up say it is "honestly one of the best things we've ever done." A portion of the proceeds go to the Save the Tiger fund.

Toronto singer/songwriter Katie Stelmanis' dark, synthy Austra project will release their debut LP, Feel It Break, May 17 via Domino. There's a video for the album's latest single, "Lose It", and it's...pretty weird! The M Blash-directed clip features the band as they stand around a sparsely designed house, staring out the window at frozen missiles while images of playing cards, monkeys, and digitzed island landscapes randomly pop into the frame. At one point, Stelmanis looks in a mirror and sees a monkey instead, which I would probably lose my fucking shit over if that happened to me. Check it out below.
